Irish Fairy Tale: Molly Murphy and the
Scorched Leprechaun
According to Irish legend, leprechauns are clever little shoemakers who guard hidden pots of gold at the end of the rainbow. They’re known for their mischief and quick wit, often outsmarting anyone who tries to catch them. Though rarely seen, these magical folk are said to bring luck to those who treat them kindly.
Creating leprechaun crafts is a fun way to celebrate their playful spirit and keep a touch of Irish magic alive.
